The Role
As a Partner Sales Manager at Lucanet, you will play a pivotal role in the Partner Division. You will be responsible for recruiting, managing, and supporting partners to ensure they achieve ambitious sales goals and adhere to Lucanet’s high standards. Acting as the primary contact between partners and Lucanet, you will provide guidance, feedback, and resources to drive net-new ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue). In this dynamic position, you will oversee partner performance, support the full lifecycle of new partner onboarding, and contribute to strategic growth initiatives. You will also support the Partner Success team, ensuring that Lucanet remains agile and competitive.
What you'll do
- Build and expand a partner ecosystem in a defined region, with a clear focus on net‑new partner recruitment, activation, and revenue generation.
- Identify, qualify, and recruit new business partners (e.g. Big 4 partners or comparable consultancies and system integrators) aligned with Lucanet’s strategic growth goals, ensuring strong business plan alignment.
- Build a predictable, scalable, and repeatable partner revenue engine from the ground up — hunting new opportunities, developing deep partner relationships, and driving deals end-to-end from positioning through to contract closure.
- Collaborate with internal Sales, Marketing, and Partner Success teams to execute regional channel strategies that accelerate partner‑sourced net‑new ARR.
- Work with newly onboarded partners to design and execute Go‑to‑Market (GTM) and pipeline generation plans, ensuring fast ramp‑up and early wins.
- Support the onboarding, enablement, and early performance management of new partners, ensuring clear expectations and measurable success milestones.
- Oversee partner contracts, agreements, and incentive programs to drive early engagement, performance, and compliance.
- Track KPIs such as pipeline creation, partner‑sourced revenue, and regional coverage, and present progress and growth opportunities to senior management.
- Act as the voice of the partner and the region within Lucanet, providing structured feedback on market requirements, competitive dynamics, and partner needs.
- Monitor industry trends, competitor activities, and regional market developments to proactively identify growth opportunities and risks.
What you bring to the table
- A university degree in business administration or a related field.
- Proven experience in partner sales, channel development, or ecosystem build‑up, ideally within a SaaS or enterprise software environment.
- A strong hunter mentality with clear experience in building new partner territories and driving net‑new business.
- Experience working with Big 4 partners or comparable consulting partners is highly desirable.
- High motivation with exceptional perseverance, determination, resilience, and tenacity.
- Strong sales acumen with the ability to clearly articulate Lucanet’s value proposition and activate new partners commercially.
- Excellent communication skills in English to engage effectively with partners and internal stakeholders (additional languages are a plus).
- Proficiency in CRM systems (e.g. Salesforce) and partner sales enablement tools.
- Strong analytical and structured thinking to assess regional performance, pipeline health, and growth potential.
- A track record of driving change, building new structures, and scaling early‑stage initiatives.
- A collaborative mindset combined with the ability to work independently in a greenfield or build‑up environment.
